Stephen Graham (“The Irishman”) and Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones”) will star in three-part prison drama series “Time,” created by Jimmy McGovern (“Accused”) for U.K. broadcaster BBC One.
Set within the British penal system, the drama is seen through the eyes of two different men, a teacher, husband and father who killed an innocent man in an accident, played by Bean, and a caring prison officer, played by Graham.

Victoria star Leo Suter, Outlander’s Stuart Harris and Darkest Hour’s Imogen King have joined the cast of the second season of Clique after U.S. network Pop boarded the show.
As Deadline revealed earlier this year, the show was handed a second season by BBC Three and Pop. Filming has now begun on the drama, created by Skins’ Jess Brittain, in Edinburgh, with a number of new faces joining the cast.
While the first season, which saw Holly, played by Synnove Karlsen, drawn to a group of alluring, confident but troubled young women, the second will see her encounter a radically different clique, this time a band of brothers.
Suter, who also starred in Jack Whitehall’s Bad Education, will be joined by The Hollow Crown’s Barney Harris, Outlander’s Stuart Campbell alongside King, Mary, Queen of Scots’ Izuka Hoyle and newcomers Jyuddah Jaymes and Nicholas Nunn.
